Chronicles of Narnia

€ 30.95

Journeys to the end of the world, fantastic creatures, and epic
battles between good and evil - what more could any reader ask for in
one book? That book was The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, written
in 1949 by Clive Staples Lewis. But Lewis did not stop there. Six
more books followed and together they became known as The
Chronicles of Narnia.

For the past fifty years, The
Chronicles of Narnia have transcended the fantasy genre to
become part of the canon of classic literature.

Each of the seven books is a masterpiece, drawing the reader
into a world where magic meets reality and the result is a fictional
world whose scope has fascinated generations.

This edition
presents all seven unabridged books in one impressive volume. The
books are presented here according to Lewis' preferred order, each
chapter graced with an illustration by the books' original artist,
Pauline Baynes. Deceptively simple and direct, The Chronicles of
Narnia continue to captivate fans with adventures, characters,
and truths that speak to readers of all ages, even fifty years after
they were first published.

The author:Clive Staples Lewis was born in Belfast in 1898. He was a fellow and
tutor in English Literature at Magdalen College, Oxford, and later
was Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge
University, where he remained until his death in 1963. He wrote
numerous books of literary criticism and on Chistianity, the
best-known being The Screwtape Letters, as well as four novels for
adults. The Narnia stories were his only works for children, and
originated with an imaginary picture of a Faun carrying an umbrella
and parcels in a snowy wood.
